Read our thoughts about this great Premier League opposition between Everton vs Manchester City, here below, and get free predictions and betting tips for this game.

During the last 5 games between these teams only in January of the 2017 year, Everton won and won with fabulous 4:0 result at Goodison Park. Then the guests were more dangerous, but they failed to defend and even to score. The home team scored 4 goals in that game, but it only angered City, who in the next games avenged that humiliating defeat. Last 3 games Manchester City won scoring at least 2 goals. Moreover, they won twice in the last 2 seasons at Goodison Park.

Everton

After 2 good victories in the home field, Everton met with newcomers of the Premier League and unexpectedly lost with a score of 0:2. Away, the team played very badly, so at least they collected points confidently in the home field. However, Sheffield spoiled the mood of the Blue fans even playing in Liverpool. Guests ruined the winning streak of Everton since March, as they won 6 home games in a row in Premier League. Hosts created lots of dangerous moments, however, they failed to finish them successfully. While for guests was enough to shot only once on target to score 2 goals. Yerry Mina scored an own goal, and in general defence and Jordan Pickford played week game. Sheffield United after this win even took the higher position in PL with 1 point difference against Everton.

Everton won in 1/16 Finals of EFL Cup against another Sheffield. They won the game with 2:0 result and were qualified to another round where they will face Watford. At the moment Everton scored 5 and conceded 9 goals in PL, what is a really bad result for such a young, talented and prospective team. They stand at 14th place with 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. During this summer they spent 120m €. We hope that the team will prove themselves in the attack and the investment will pay off soon. Unfortunately, Andre Gomes and Jean-Philippe Gbamin will miss this big match due to injuries.

Manchester City

Manchester this season look really strong and confident. They already won the Community Shield against Liverpool at the beginning of the season. In Premier League they stand at the second place right after their already constant rivals Liverpool. While Reds not losing any points in PL, Citizens already have 1 lost against Norwich and 1 drawn with Spurs. This complicates the situation in the League at the very first stage. Although remembering last season, it all began the same way, but we all know how it ended. We see Manchester CIty looking forward and aiming UEFA Champions League as the main goal of the season and taking PL as a second target.

Match against Everton is every time very tough and difficult. This year, even with a very weak start, Everton can be very dangerous playing at Goodison Park, so CIty should be ready to confront. After the game with Blues, City will face at home Dinamo Zagreb, which took and an extremely big win over the Italians Atalanta finishing the game with 4:0 result. So the City should be ready to face very motivated and strong Croatians.

Unfortunately, Leroy Sane, John Stones and Laporte will miss next game due to injuries.
